Order a horse-drawn carriage for date nights, weddings, anniversaries, and other special events from Caustelot Farms. Or, take a spontaneous carriage ride at Station Square, where carriage services are available most Friday and Saturday evenings from May through October. Get a tour of Station Square, take a romantic Moonlight River Ride or familiarize yourself with the city on the Downtown Tour.
Escape the noise of the city and spend some time outdoors at Frick Park. Stretching from Point Breeze down to the Monongahela River, this woodland park offers extensive trails, a large bird population, tennis courts, baseball fields and the only public lawn bowling green in Pennsylvania. If you are visiting during the winter, bring your sled to take advantage of the steep hills.
Get wild at Idlewild Park and Soak Zone, one of the oldest amusement parks in the country. Take a ride on a "Classic Coaster," travel to the top of the Ferris wheel or test your nerves on the Tilt-A-Whirl. Once you have sampled the traditional amusement park rides, head over to the Soak Zone to cool down with some water recreation during the summer months.
